Description
A cinnamon donut protein powder sounds like a gimmick until you want something sweet that still fits a high protein routine. NutraBio Whey Protein Isolate in Cinnamon Sugar Donut provides 25 g of protein per serve from 100% whey protein isolate (WPI90), in a 2 lb (907 g) tub with about 30 serves.
What is NutraBio Whey Protein Isolate?
Whey protein isolate is whey that has been filtered further than a standard concentrate. NutraBio uses CFM (cross-flow micro and ultra-filtered) WPI90, and each 29.94 g scoop contains 28.74 g of whey protein isolate. The label has a full-disclosure format and states there is no protein spiking, no proprietary blends, no ion-exchanged whey and no acid-treated whey.
The only added ingredients are natural and artificial flavours, xanthan gum, salt, sucralose, acesulfame potassium and sunflower lecithin. The brand states the protein is made without soy or gluten.

Who it suits
This product suits people who like to see exactly what is in their tub. NutraBio lists the amount of whey protein isolate per scoop (28.74 g) next to the protein it delivers, so you can see how the protein number is reached. It is also a good pick if you like dessert flavours but want very little carbohydrate, since the panel lists less than 1 g per serve. Note that it uses two artificial sweeteners, sucralose and acesulfame potassium, which some people prefer to avoid.
How it fits into your routine
This is a dessert-style flavour that suits a shake after training, a sweet afternoon snack or a mix-in for oats and yoghurt. Because it is flavoured and sweetened, a simple scoop with water or milk is often all it needs. If you like dessert flavours, there is also a Nutricost Cake Batter whey isolate on our site, and you can compare more options in the protein powder range.
How to use
Mix each scoop (included) with 5 to 6 oz (about 150 to 180 ml) of water or a beverage of your choice. Vary the amount of liquid to suit your taste and preferred thickness.
